Work, work, work.
For those people who are unemployed, i feelyour pain. Or i did. A year to the day after i left my last job at a retirement home, i FINALLY found another job. I left the previous job to go to college about 2 hours away, but after one semester decided i had better things to do. So i moved back home in dec. and had been looking for a job since when last month my brother in law, Adam, told me they were hiring for new positions at his office, where i now work as a "Customer Support Rep." That's right, when you have a problem with an account or you just don't understand what it is your reading, you call me. Now, after having been unemployed and doing pretty much nothing all day long, you'd think i'd enjoy having a real reason to actually get out of bed before 2 p.m. And at first was so happy, but now, not so much. I spend all day talking to people who are stressed, broke, and more often thannot, completely pissed off. So, that makes me feel pissed of, which is a no-no because when i talk on the phone i need to sound happy. When i'm not talking to the rudest people ever, i'm waiting to talk to the rudest people EVER! So after only doing the job for two weeks, i'm ready to shoot myself. I once worked at a radio station as a d.j. and it was the best time i ever had in my life. However it was a college class and i did get college credit for it, but no actual dough, so that ended. I've decided i really want a job where all i have to do is listen to music all day and try to make people life. Or, better yet, i'd like to be making the music. I used to sing all the time, and went on a music tour through europw singing with the Utah Ambassadors of Music. So i'm assuming that i have at least a little talent. I really just want to sing all night long! Ya, ya, i know it's a little cheezy but doesn't everyone want to be a rockstar. Personally, i think i would make a pretty good one if i got a hair cut and some new shoes.

Wow, you're burned out ALREADY? Tele-stuff is a drag, but it's not THAT bad, lol. You just need to remember that while they're annoying and rude, it isn't a personal thing. You should be able to shake it all off after the call, because chances are, the problem is fixed and they're getting over it or the problem isn't fixed but they're focused on the problem itself and not their confrontation with you. Just remember to stay positive and their problem will not be a problem with you.
